Rebirth of His Royal Highness Prince Chenghu

Chenghu took Yiermu directly into the palace and headed straight for Kunning Palace.

Yiermu: "Master, how did we get into the palace?"

Cheng Hu: "You are pregnant now, so you must inform the Emperor and Empress."

Kunning Palace

Qingyao sat on a lounge chair in the yard and stroked the fur of the cat in her arms.

Cheng Hu: "My son and the Crown Princess pay their respects to the Empress Dowager."

Qingyao opened her eyes and sat up: "Tuantuan, why are you here?"

Cheng Hu: "Mother, I have good news to tell you."

Qingyao: "What good news?"

Chenghu: "Mother, you are going to be a nanny." He said happily.

Qingyao stood up excitedly, holding Chenghu's shoulders with both hands, and asked happily: "Really? Yiermu is pregnant?"

Chenghu smiled and nodded. Yiermu stepped forward and bowed, "Daughter-in-law greets the Empress Dowager."

Qingyao quickly supported Yiermu, holding her hand, smiling from ear to ear, "Good girl, get up quickly, and take good care of yourself in the future."

Yiermu responded shyly, and Chenghu said beside him, "Your son will take good care of the Crown Princess."

Qingyao looked at Chenghu, her eyes full of relief, "You are sensible now and know how to care for others."

Cheng Hu chuckled, "This is all thanks to my mother's good teaching."

Qingyao scolded with a smile, "You're just sweet-talking!" Then, she turned to Yiermu and said, "If you need anything in the future, just tell me, and I'll send someone to take care of you."

Chenghu: "Mother, please remember to tell Father this good news."

Qingyao: "I see. Your father sent Liang Jiugong to pass on the message. Come to Kunning Palace for dinner later."

Cheng Hu: "Mother, I have something to ask of you."

Qingyao: "You are my son, what are you talking about asking for help or not?"

Cheng Hu: "My son wants to borrow Ling Ma from your side. Yiermu is pregnant, and the maidservants she brought with her don't know how to take care of a pregnant woman, so my son wants to borrow Ling Ma from you."

Qingyao smiled and nodded, "It's not difficult. Madam Ling is an old lady in the palace and has a lot of experience. I feel at ease letting her take care of Yiermu."

Cheng Hu was overjoyed when he heard this and immediately knelt down to express his gratitude, "Thank you, mother!"

Yiermu also knelt down and said, "Thank you, mother."

Qingyao helped the two of them up, "Yilmu, get up quickly. You are pregnant, so there is no need to perform formalities. We are family, so we should keep our distance. From now on, Yiermu, just focus on taking care of the baby and don't worry about anything else."

Chenghu and Yiermu smiled at each other, their hearts filled with gratitude.

Qingyao saw the Qi shoes Yiermu was wearing and said, "Yiermu, take them off quickly and wear them after you give birth. Your health is important."

Yiermu: "Mother is right. It was my daughter-in-law who didn't pay attention. She changed into Manchu shoes as soon as she got home."

Qingyao rewarded Yiermu with many things

After Yiermu thanked Qingyao, Chenghu took her away from Kunning Palace.

After Chenghu and Yiermu left Kunning Palace, they went straight back to the Prince's Mansion. Yiermu gently stroked her belly with a happy smile on her face.

"Yilmu, who do you think our child will look like?" Chenghu asked with a smile.

"I hope my child will be like you, handsome and elegant." Yiermu responded gently.

"But if it's a daughter, it would be nice if she's as beautiful as you." Chenghu took Yiermu's hand. "It doesn't matter who she looks like, as long as she's healthy and safe."

Yiermu nodded and leaned on Chenghu's shoulder.

After returning to the Prince's Mansion, Chenghu carefully helped Yiermu sit down and ordered the servants to prepare some food that Yiermu liked. Yiermu felt very warm in her heart as she watched Chenghu busying around for her.

Soon, Matron Ling arrived at the Prince's residence. She bowed to Yiermu and then began to carefully inquire about her health and explain some pregnancy precautions. Yiermu listened attentively, nodding her head to show understanding.

In the days that followed, Nanny Ling meticulously cared for Yiermu's daily life. Chenghu also often took time to accompany Yiermu, caring about her every little detail. Yiermu's pregnancy became more stable day by day, and they looked forward to the arrival of the new life.

Kunning Palace

Kangxi strode into the bedroom and asked, "My dear, I heard from the palace servants that Chenghu and his wife have entered the palace?"

Qingyao stood up and went to greet him: "My husband, Chenghu and his wife have entered the palace and have good news to tell you."

Kangxi said with great interest, "Oh? What good news? Tell me quickly."

Qingyao smiled slightly, gently held Kangxi's arm, and said, "Yirmu is pregnant, and your husband is going to be a baby." After hearing this, Kangxi's eyes flashed with joy, "This is really great! I'm finally going to have a grandson!" He turned to Liang Jiugong beside him and said, "Pass on my decree to reward the Prince's Mansion with a thousand taels of gold and a hundred pieces of silk." Liang Jiugong hurriedly responded and retreated.

Kangxi then said to Qingyao, "My dear, you must take good care of Yiermu in the future and ensure that she can give birth to a grandson smoothly."

Qingyao nodded and replied, "I understand, my husband, rest assured." Kangxi and Qingyao then went to the Cining Palace and the Ningshou Palace to tell the good news to the Grand Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager. The Grand Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager were delighted and said they would have gifts prepared and sent to the Crown Prince's residence. For a moment, the entire palace was immersed in an atmosphere of joy.
